[darwinbuild] -depsbuild going away soon...

-depsbuild was/is an option to load binary roots using another
(typical older) build than the "current" build, for instance to allow
8A428 to provide roots when building projects from the 8B15 plist.
Darwinbuild 0.7.1 supports a more sophisticated mechanism where if
the "current" build doesn't have a binary root, the build inheritance
tree is traversed to satisfy the root, which should remove the need
for explicit -depsbuild. Indeed, it's not clear how -depsbuild would
interact with this new code anyway.
I plan on removing this option soon. If you've been using -depsbuild,
try not using it. Things should work equivalently, if not better.
